The calcined hydrotalcite was cooled to 65° C. This was added to 100 ml of 0.01M potassium iodate solution prepared in distilled water, which is heated to 70° C. prior to addition. The reacting mass was stirred for five minutes maintaining the said temperature and left to stand for one hour with intermittent stirring for one minute at an interval of 30 minute. The resultant slurry was filtered. The solid separated was washed with distilled water till the wash filtrate does not show any silver iodate precipitate with silver nitrate. The solids were dried at 110° C. The dry material was analyzed for its iodine content using classical method of iodometry employing sodium thiosu...

The calcined hydrotalcite was cooled to 60° C. This was added to 50 ml of 0.01M potassium iodate solution prepared in distilled water which is heated to 60° C. prior to addition. The reacting mass was stirred for five minutes maintaining the said temperature and left to stand for one hour with intermittent stirring for one minute at an interval of 30 minute. The resultant slurry was filtered. The solid separated was washed with 200 ml distilled water till the wash filtrate does not show any silver iodate precipitate with silver nitrate. The solids were dried at 110° C. The dry material was analyzed for its iodine content using classical method of iodometry employing sodium t...

Abstract

A method for preparation of iodizing agent for the use in the formulation of iodised salt that offers excellent stability of iodine in iodised salt is developed and the unrefined salt iodised with this compound was tested for its stability in presence of moisture, temperature and metal salts at higher temperature. The hydrotalcite type layered compound was used to prepare such compound and part of carbonate was substituted with iodate anion. The iodising agent exhibited excellent stability of iodine in iodised salt.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a novel iodizing agent. The present invention also relates to a novel process for the preparation of the iodizing agent from Pharma grade hydrotalcite and water soluble alkali iodate by intercalating iodate anion in the interlayer space. The iodizing agent so prepared is stable and can be effectively used in the formulation of iodized salt, wherein it offers stability to iodine. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Iodine is a very important trace element necessary in the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones. Iodine is required for developing and maintaining healthy body. There are well known Iodine Deficiency Disorders like Goiter and Cretinism. The edible salt is chosen as a vehicle in the provision of iodine because of its uniform consumption and availability to all segments of population independent of social or economic status. During the past twenty years, there has been a strong effort, lead by the United Nations, to io...
